You should have 0.00000000000000001% of her class.

I guess I'll never understand conservatrash "taste." Here we have a
photo of the First Lady, a smart, educated, tall and charming woman, and
a responsible mother, looking elegant in a really nice dress by a top
designer who sadly is no longer with us. What's not to like?

Imagine an episode of The Twilight Zone in which Michele Bachmann is
president, and she's with her christian correspondence school
edu-ma-cated husband "therapist," a man unable or unwilling to take a
licensure exam. Or, alternately, the trailer-trash Palin family.

Puke.

Exactly. When GWB was president, I always thought Laura Bush had
class. Ok, she didn't marry someone I would have picked, but it's hard
to say she picked a loser. She looked at all her options and ended up
with someone who became a governor of a major state and then
president. Perhaps he did that on the back of Rove, but still. You
can't say Bush was a nobody.

Then there's Palin. She became governor, and from most reports did a
decent job for 1/2 term. That was quite an accomplishment for someone
who wasn't well-educated. She seems to have gone completely nuts
though, caught up in her own talking points and unable to get back to
thinking about what's best for the state (or country). She's ambitious
and successful, but only in a venal way, which was hinted at during
her governorship. I don't find her classy at all, but she's not ugly.
She sort of reminds me of Carrie Prejean on some level... nice to look
at I suppose (fake boobs) and no ability to think on her feet.

Bachmann is certainly not stupid, but anyone who claims she became a
tax attorney, working for the IRS, because her husband told her to do
it is so out of touch that it would have to be a TZ episode.

Palin picked a "snow machine" racer and Bachmann a closeted gay man.
